6 Emilia Whitmore (1/2)

The mild sun rays of the late dawn, fell on the soft skin of the sleeping beauty. Her skin had a warm glow. Hearing the chirping of the birds early in the morning, Margaret woke up. Rubbing her eyes, her sleepy face broke into a gentle smile.

Today was a special day. She had plans for today. Since fifteen years, Margaret visited a place which holds a special spot in her heart. It had become a tradition for her now.

Feeling happy yet empty from inside, she went to have a bath. Standing under the cold shower, she glanced at the dazzling pendant. It looked like a sparkling light in water. She held it close to her heart.Wiping her wet damp skin, she moved out of the bathroom. She gently dried her long blonde hair. She wore a simple sky blue color gown with a big bow that hugged her slim waist.

As she descended down the stairs, Caroline glared at the natural beauty who effortlessly looked beautiful without makeup. Her dark black eyelashes gave a subtle look of kohl, the perfect pair of eyes glistened as if they were dipped in water. The gown perfectly hugged her natural curves. She looked like a painting coming in life as it walked slowly towards her.

”Good morning sister Caroline.”, Margaret wished her.

Returning to her senses, Caroline looked at the beauty standing in front of her and wished ”Happy birthday Margaret.” her face showed no signs of happiness or gentleness.

”Thank you. You remembered my birthday?”, Margaret was shocked.

”No, not at all. Father told me of course,” smirked Caroline.

Being used to such treatment for so long, in fact for years, Margaret showed no signs of sadness. She knew that she held no importance for the stepmother and stepsister except for her father.

Without breaking her smile, ”Thank you again, Sister Caroline, this means a lot to me,” she thanked Caroline.

Before Caroline could speak, ”Are you ready my birthday girl?,” Corbette spoke as he walked towards the young girls.

”Good morning, father. Yes, I'm ready!”, Margaret smiled.

”Good morning, father,” Caroline wished.

”Good morning young ladies! Come on Margaret, we better be heading early today.” he spoke as he smiled looking at how beautiful and adorable Margaret looked.

”Okay.”, smiled Margaret.

Moving out of the villa, Margaret saw a palace's carriage parked in front of the gate. Looking at it, she got confused. She pushed aside her confused thoughts aside and started walking along with her face, trying to keep up his pace.

”You need to exercise my little girl. See you've grown so clumsy! you cannot even walk along with me...”, Corbette commented.

”Father, you aren't walking! You're about to jog.” complained Margaret.

”Is it? Catch me if you can.” he started jogging as he spoke.

Seeing the sudden change in pace, Margaret started jogging along with him.

”That's not fair, father! I'm wearing a gown... I - I might trip down!”, she spoke as she started gasping heavily for air.

Seeing her adorable face which had a shade of light red. He stopped in front of the palace's carriage.

”Get in!” he exclaimed as he waved his face towards the carriage, indicating her to speed up.

As she stopped in front of the carriage, she was surprised to see how beautiful the carriage was. The golden carriage was covered with floral designs with gems sticking on it.

The carriage man was in a white coat, holding the robes that were tied to two white horses.

'Am I supposed to get in? '

All these thoughts ran in her mind as her face reflected what her mind thought.

Guessing at her expressions, Corbette pinched her cheeks. Returning to her right mind, she looked at him adorably.
